Seedings were determined by total points scored, including losses. Fiona Davies, who would have appeared as fifth seed with 274 points, was unable to attend the finals and instead was given a special playoff against the next series' eighth seed, Maureen Grabham, and went on to reach the Grand Final of that series. For the finals of this series, she was replaced by two-time winner Glen Webb. Also, Gareth Williams was awarded seven bonus points after Dictionary Corner had wrongly disallowed ELITIST in one of his heats, although the seedings were unaffected.
